- Title
Limitações e inconsistências das definições sintéticas para psicologia.

- Abstract
The purpose of this memorandum is to propose a conceptual definition for psychology capable of integrating unfolding objects, methodological differences and application diversity. The argument is based on the obvious fact that there is only one psyche, even if one recognizes different ways of describing, studying, preventing and treating it. Thus, psychology can be defined as a vast field of impressive and expressive manifestations which can be synthesized in articulations of their affective, cognitive and conative properties, and such manifestations can be observable (third-person perspective) or not (firstperson perspective). The enunciation terms will be discussed after logical and historical analysis on definitions presented by philosophers and psychologists, from the end of the 19th century to the beginning of the 21th century. The proposition is based on the clarifying differentiation between plurality of objects (ontological hierarchy or unfolding of objects) and pluralism of conceptions (epistemological diversity).
